I wanted to believe in God. I wanted to be with my husband. I wanted to have a united family. I loved my friends. Those are the main reasons why I joined and stayed so long. I always felt uneasy about the whole fiasco, but what I wanted was more important than the truth/reality. I learned that nothing is more important than the truth/reality. You cannot ignore it and expect to live an innocent and secure life. Eventually, the lies catch up to you, no matter what you do.

Reality is plain to see: if you just open your eyes
by kneehighmiah ini made a post a few days ago about stagnant jw growth at international conventions.
i also enjoyed reading analysis of the statistics from jwfacts.
what the watchtower claims and what the reality is, are two different things.

I passed by on my way home from work today-- i just pulled over quietly, smiled, and said "secta" or "cult" in Spanish. Sorry, I just had to do it.

Kate-- I still have a ways to go, but step one is complete. I feel confident that the rest will be accomplished too. It feels good to get important things done :-)
I'm going to ask the University if they'll let me walk next spring. I want my girls to be a part of my graduation and see that sacrifice pays :-) Crossing my fingers!

Hi All,
I just wanted to share the good news that Wednesday was the last day of my summer teaching internship. I had a great time with the kids-- they were ready to learn, be challenged and have fun. And this was summer school! I was definitely blessed/ fortunate. I am so happy to say that I have successfully completed all of the requirements for my Master's! On Thursday, I had my evaluation with my cooperating teacher and university counselor and they passed me with flying colors! I am one step closer to accomplishing my goal of becoming a full-time classroom teacher. All that's left is to apply for my license/certificate to teach!
Here's to success outside of the Borg for my girls and I! Cheers!

Jews are an ethnic group. As to whether they are a race, scientists don't like to use that term anymore because of all the 19th and 20th century baggage assigned to that word.Here'ss an interesting article about the topic of "genetic" Jews--

As far as Islam and Muslims-- Idon't want to make a comment just yet. But I do agree with Huntington's thesis on the Clash of Civilizations.
